Miami Police Issue Arrest Warrant for Gervonta 'Tank' Davis on Battery and Kidnapping Counts

Investigators say club surveillance supports a former girlfriend's account.

Overview

  • Miami Gardens police announced that a judge approved an arrest warrant charging the WBA champion with battery, false imprisonment and attempted kidnapping tied to an October 27 incident.
  • The department said it is working with the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force to locate Davis, who had not been taken into custody at the time of the briefing.
  • Police said the woman reported being grabbed by the head and throat and dragged toward a parking garage at Tootsie’s Cabaret, and officials noted she sustained minor bruising.
  • The alleged victim is identified in court filings as Courtney Rossel; her attorney said police findings match her civil lawsuit, and detectives said surveillance footage corroborates key elements of her account.
  • The allegations prompted the cancellation of a planned exhibition with Jake Paul, and the development comes alongside Davis’s prior legal history, including a 2023 hit-and-run conviction and a 2025 domestic case later dropped.
